Abstract
This application discloses a transmission path fault processing method and apparatus, and a system, to resolve a problem that a packet fails to be forwarded because a previous-hop node of a faulty node cannot process a stitching label. The method includes: receiving, by a first network device, a stitching label and a stitching label stack list corresponding to the stitching label that are sent by a stitching network device; determining, in a process of sending a packet through a primary path, that the stitching network device is faulty, where the packet includes a label stack list, and the stitching network device is a next-hop network device of the first network device; and replacing, by the first network device, the stitching label in the label stack list with the stitching label stack list, and switching, based on the updated label stack list, the packet to a backup path for sending.
